Just to give you an idea, a brand new version of this camera actually typically retails for 1,159.98, as evidenced by Sears‘ retail price! So even though it’s refurbished at the Canon eStore, you’re still saving money than 50%, which is absolutely incredible for a camera like this one.

Here are just some of the most noteworthy specs:

18MP CMOS sensor

5.0 fps

extended ISO range of 100-12800

hybrid CMOS AF system

3″ clear view LCD monitor

multi-shot noise reduction

full HD movie mode with continuous AF

It also comes with a Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS II lens. Once you add it to your cart, the following two items will also be included free of charge:

Camera armor 58mm UV filter: reg. $14.99

Remote controller RC-6: reg. $27

At Amazon, a non-refurbished version of this camera is actually as high as $734.23 through the marketplace. The reason I bring it up though is that you can read over 750 reviews and the first one posted is definitely worth checking out. It’s rather lengthy but covers all aspects from the look and feel, to the touchscreen, image quality, battery life and other aspects. Not to spoil it or anything but that reviewer gave it a 5/5 star review. It also has a general consensus a near perfect score, so if you’re looking for an amazing camera that is affordable, then this deal from Canon is a worthy contender.

As we have mentioned numerous times before here at Bargainmoose, a “refurbished” status is nothing to shy away from as you can rest assured that the product is in great condition, if not in even better condition than a brand new product. Although the risks of something malfunctioning within the camera are extremely low, anything can certainly happen but you can rest assured that you will be protected for at least a year with Canon’s refurbished limited warranty.

Speaking of reviews, CNET has given the Canon EOS Rebel a 4.5/5 star rating praising the quality of the pictures with the only downside being that: “the feature set remains rather blah, and its photos aren’t as good as the T3i’s at high ISO sensitivities“.

Essentially the savings are as follows: 59% off for the 32GB and 65% off for the 64GB one. Both feature the following specs:

Up to 800x (120mb/s) transfer speed

Captures 1080p full HD & 4k videos with a DSLR, an HD camcorder or a 3D camera

High speed file transfer

If you want, you can also download Image Rescue at no extra cost with purchase of either one of these flash card. It’s a program that helps you recover most photos and select video files if you happen to accidentally delete a file. It can also help to potential recover a file if the batteries on your device happen to fail right in the middle of saving a picture.

Other sizes of this flash card are also on sale but for not nearly as big of a discount. The 16GB one for instance is more expensive than the 32GB one! It’s on sale for $54.84 (reg. $74.99), while, as I already mentioned, the 32GB one is $46.99. The 128GB one is on sale for $264.87 (reg. $362.99) but at that price, you may as well pick up two of the 64GB for a total of $149.98 instead.

Overall, reviews are very favourable for the Lexar Professional CompactFlash card with 14 reviewers giving it a general consensus of 4.7/5 stars. Here’s one example:

Great product. Arrived right on time, and just in time for a grizzly bear photographic trip on the west coast of Canada. Performed well.

Another reviewer noted the following:

Recommend this product to anyone shooting in raw or even jpeg (it may take you awhile to load it up). Great for shooting video as well

Other reviewers also praised Amazon’s fast shipping. In fact, I can attest to this as well. I often order from Amazon and am always surprised at how quickly my purchases arrive. Since Amazon ships orders over $25 for free, you’re sure to get either one or both of these flash cards shipped at no extra cost.

You can also print the coupon through the main link. In your free portrait package you will receive:

One (1) 11×14″ Wall Portrait

One (1) 8×10″ print

Two (2) 5×7″ prints

Four (4) 3½x5″ prints

Ten (10) 4×8″ Greeting Cards

Fifteen (15) photo gift tags

You get all of this absolutely for free. I think this is one of my favourite freebies this year because it is just so useful! For your photos, you can choose one pose. There are various enhancements and backgrounds you can choose for your pictures as well.

Now, if you click through the first link above and share the free deal with three of your friends, Walmart will send you a free 16×20″ wall portrait worth $69.99. You will need to fill out your email address as well as the email addresses of three friends and check the box that says:

Yes, I would like you to email me the FREE 16×20 Wall Portrait and other great offers. You can easily unsubscribe at anytime. See our Privacy Policy or contact us below.

It is that simple. That brings your total value up to somewhere around $200 for the free photo package. You can book your appointment via the website so all you need to do is show up with the kids freshly scrubbed and ready. The package is valid for multiple subjects in studio only. You can find Walmart Portrait locations through the store locator here.

This is pretty much the same as the Sears Free portrait package that Margarita mentioned yesterday. Of course, you should get both packs, as they are both free!

The husband and I have not had pictures taken since our wedding, which was 4 and 1/2 years ago. I think this might be a great opportunity to update our photos and send some out to family and friends. I know my mother would be ecstatic to receive fresh photos and she would probably put one up on the piano or the fridge.

Want to take kooky family portrait? Then here’s a fabulous opportunity to get professional pictures for free! Head over to Sears Portrait to print a coupon for a free portrait package. It’s valued at $159!

The only drawback to note about this freebie is that all of the products must be in the same pose. You can have as many subjects (family members) as you want present and can take as many pictures as you want, but once you’re done, you need to pick just one to print in all of the aforementioned sizes. In fact, you may also pick between numerous backgrounds and enhancements, instead of just a plain white one.

It would certainly have been great to be able to choose multiple poses but considering this is a $160 valued freebie, I’m certainly not complaining. In fact, I’m actually excited to redeem this freebie myself as it’s my baby’s first Christmas. We already took a couple of pictures, but it would be great to get the grandparents involved as well.

Also keep in mind that although this freebie is only on for a limited time, once you print your coupon, you have until January 31st 2015 to book your session.

The package comes with 15 photo gift tags, which you can use to affix onto Christmas presents but you would need to book the session pronto as there isn’t much time left until Christmas and the pictures would take a couple of days to be ready. Worst case scenario, you could just save those gift tags for next year or use them for other holidays and anniversaries in the coming year.

Once you click over to the Sears Portrait page to print the coupon for the free portrait session, you will also be given the option to send it to a friend. If you do this, then you will also get a free 16×20 wall portrait included with your portrait session. It’s valued at $84.98. Plus, you don’t even really need to send it to friends as you can use any of your own e-mail address to fill in the 3 required fields.

If you wanted to buy this Sony a5000 Mirrorless Camera with 16-50mm Lens from Future Shop or Best Buy today, it’s currently on sale for $429.99. I’ve included a snippet of a review of this premium camera from a satisfied Best Buy customer below:

I’ve had this camera for a week and a bit now and overall I like it.

Short, sweet, and to the point. If you love photography, or if you know a special someone that loves using their camera, then you need to check out this deal today. I hope you all have a great day today!

I am a little bit of an amateur photographer. I love taking photos and took a few photography courses in my time. I hope to have more time for it one day, although my favourite subjects – my kids – will be grown up by then I guess. I am heading to California soon and definitely taking my camera for all the beautiful landscape shots. I’d love to also be in them, but unfortunately, but husband knows zero about composition of photos. This is where my trusty tripod comes in and my automatic timer or remote. If you want something smaller, that is best just for steadying your camera for long-exposure shots, a monopod could do too.

The best deals I see in this category include:

Polaroid 75″ photo/video ProPod tripodwhich includes the deluxe carrying and additional quick release plate for digital cameras and camcorders. It has a 4 star rating from 60 customer reviews. Was $83.99, now $39.99.

Chroma key is the process of replacing a colour (usually a blue or green background) in a picture with something else. For example, you could have a picture of your kids in front of a green screen and replace the green background with a playground or a moonscape or a book. Anything you want, really. There are all kinds of programs for keying but today I want to bring you one company’s offerings, the stuff from Green Screen wizard.

The main product in the Green Screen Wizard is, surprise, Green Screen Wizard. They have different versions of the software and a few other programs all used for various tasks and they range from $100 to $400.

If you’re going to do green screen work, you of course, need a green screen. They offer those too and again they range from little pop up screens to full sized screens with stands and the whole deal.

The last think you are going to need if you want to replace backgrounds is replacement backgrounds. They sell a ton of different backgrounds you can use from nature backgrounds to fake magazine covers.

Until the end of April you can get 15% off anything the site sells with our coupon code.

There are over 240 Walmart Portrait studio locations at which you can redeem this Dealfind, so if you live in Canada, you probably live close enough to a studio to take advantage of this deal.

You can buy two vouchers, but can only use one per session. You can also buy three as gifts. The vouchers expire 31st March 2014, so don’t assume you can buy one for now and one for summer as you really only have two months to use them.

This Dealfind deal is pretty sweet! For only $45, you’ll get a Sears portrait package (a $219 value), plus 50% off all photo gifts. This is the perfect deal to get right before Christmas to get your Christmas photos done for your cards. I’m definitely considering this one.

Oftentimes it seems that most book categories take a back seat to fiction. This is likely because of the internet. It’s easy to get all the info you need on photography, science, travel, business and transportation with a quick Google search nowadays. But, with eBooks and great deals like this from eBooks.com, there is no reason not to pick it up in book form. The eBook allows for a great marriage of technology and books. It has the convenience of the internet and that special, undefinable quality of a book. Of course, getting 20% off isn’t a bad thing either!

Probably the biggest thing for me when I’m looking at eBooks from a non-vendor retailer (Not Amazon, Kobo, Chapters, Sony, etc…) is what they are compatible with. eBooks.com makes it easy, because it seems they’re compatible with almost everything. They say right on the top of their page that their books work with Kindle Fire, Apple, Android, Nook, Kobo, PC, Mac and Sony Reader. That is pretty much every major reading platform out there, so don’t worry about getting a book that doesn’t work. It’s also great if people in your family have different devices. A book you get from eBooks.com can work on your Kindle, your husband’s iPad and your kids’ Android tablets.
